The architecture section (4) states, "The focus uses the media policy to determine the proper configuration of the mixers."  Does this fall within the proposed charter?

REQ-GP1
What is the use case for endpoints arbitrarily specifying plumbing?

REQ-GP3
What is the use case here?  Are we really saying that it is has to be possible to add a leg to the mix?  If so, say so.

REQ-GP8
I don't understand this at all.  Can we restate it?

REQ-GP9
Is the idea to mix the user's media separately or differently?  For example, the user's Camera 1 (room) is always shown while Camera 2 (face) is only shown while speaking?

6.2
Is "overlapping windows" a client display issue or a mixing issue, or are there independent windows?

REQ-V1
What is the value to a *protocol* to talk about layout?

REQ-V2
Isn't this the definition of a video conferencing application?  Who will issue the media policy requests to change things?

REQ-V3
Is this for the whole conference or an individual user?

REQ-V4
Is this for the whole conference or an individual user?
